Thank you
My Family and I would like to thank everyone for their kindness to Jake while in the Manor; be it either visiting or playing pool while he resided there. Also for all the meals and treats delivered, phone calls and sympathy cards after his passing. We would like to thank Joanne and Tanya for the beautiful Memorial Service for Jake. Also, the donations in his name and the floral arrangements we received. All of this was greatly appreciated during such a difficult time.
Regards, Grace Baum and Family.
